"Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3 is finally going to follow the sequence and storyline of the manga series.
Speculations on various episodes for the next season of the popular anime suddenly become rife in different platforms. Among these is the belief that Ken Kaneki will be declared as the One-Eyed King in "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3.
According to Manga Stream, this was based on the 86th chapter of "Tokyo Ghoul:re" manga, when Eto Yoshimora asked Ken Kaneki to proclaim himself as the One-eyed king after the latter defeated Kishou Arima, who was then leading the confrontation of CCG against the ghouls.
Since this is a continuation of the sequel to the original manga series, the setting of "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3 is also said to be two years after the CCG raided the Anteiku, a café which serves as the headquarter of "more peaceful ghouls."
Aside from the declaration of Ken as One-Eyed King, impending fights and collision between the Aogiri Tree, a terrorist organization composed of ghouls, and the CCG will happen in "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3. The latter, however, plans on launching a group called "The Quinx Squad," which has the primordial duty to extinguish the ghouls.
The team is said to be composed of humans who possessed ghouls' powers after undergoing operation. For fans, this makes the fight more exciting as humans and ghouls are put in an equal footing in "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3.
Another catch in this group is that their leader is said to be a half-human half-ghoul named Haise Saseki. Although, according to Vine Report, this Sasaki is in fact Ken Kaneki. It is said that after being a captive of his own, he had doubts about his own breed, thus, making him transfer to the other side. Many are not convinced with this idea, instead, they believe that since the anime will follow the manga episodes, it is highly possible that he will be joining Professor Kanou in his battle against villains in "Tokyo Ghoul" Season 3.
Despite many speculations, the producers are still tight-lipped as to what the series will contain, and they have not released official statement yet as to the exact date it is rolling.
